The last Saturday in April marks Indie Bookstore Day Like Add to a List , the nationally recognized holiday that encourages readers to support their local small-but-mighty booksellers (read: not Amazon). This year's event rounds out to a grand total of 10 days (April 24-May 3), giving you even more time to 1) check coveted tomes of your reading list, 2) support small businesses, and 3) win a Seattle Indie Bookstore Day 2021 tote when you shop from 10 of 22 participating locations. We've rounded those up below (like Open Books, Third Place Books, and the recently expanded Arundel Books), along with their latest offerings available during the city's current phase of reopening. Be sure to print out a passport (or pick one up in person from a participating store) and submit it by mail (addressed to Open Books Like Add to a List , 2414 N 45th St, Seattle, WA 98103) or digitally by May 15.
